Description
Key 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter, VF Details
1916 25C --Improperly Cleaned--NGC Details. VF. Like the Mercury dime, the Standing Liberty quarter had its foremost key date appear in the first year of production, 1916. Unlike the Mercury dime, which also has other, higher-mintage issues bearing the same date as the 1916-D but different mintmarks, the Philadelphia Standing Liberty quarter issue of 1916 was the only one produced that year. Moreover, the quarter issue's mintage of just 52,000 pieces was less than one-fifth that of the 1916-D Mercury dime.While this piece is just a bit too bright to be believable, the effect of the cleaning is subdued by gray-rose toning that covers each side. All four digits in the date are legible if just a bit weak at the tops. Numerous small, but individually insignificant abrasions are scattered over both obverse and reverse.(Registry values: N2998)
